Memorable Meal Experience

“I think it's more down to who you’re with and where it is, than the food that makes a meal memorable.”

Rick recalls a visit to Riley’s Fish Shack at King Edward’s Bay, Tynemouth—a spot made of two shipping containers lined with driftwood, right on the beach. On a cold day, they had small wood burners at table height, creating a warm atmosphere.

“On the menu that day was exactly the right dish—a lovely crab soufflé with thermidor sauce.”
